Hobo Woody unwittingly crashes at the home and laboratory of Professor Frank N. Stein, who hopes to put Woody’s brain into his mechanical man. The experiment goes awry and the professor suffers an unknown fate, leaving the mechanical man to form an unlikely friendship with Woody - who managed to escape with his brain intact. The two travel the roads and rails together running afoul of an evil circus and an urban crime wave.
